The Importance Of Custody Evaluator

By Sherry Gross


Custody evaluations are common in cases involving divorcing parents. It in normally done by a custody evaluator, and who in this case is a highly trained individual in psychology matters. He/she is normally appointed by the courts of law to evaluate the psychological health of children who happen to be involved in legal tussles between their parents. They play a central role in ensuring that the parents reach an agreement in matters that concern their children.

The aim of the evaluator is to assess the family needs and send his/her recommendations to the judiciary. Thereafter, the government makes the final decision on matters that are pertinent to the well being of the children. These will include visitations as well as relevant issues that fall in the same range. The decisions made from the evaluation will therefore vary based on the very issues that are affecting the family.

Information is gathered using different methods before the evaluator can write down his or her recommendations to the judicial officers. In most cases, it is usually the last resort after spouses have failed to reach into agreements in previous settlements. However, if parents have agreed on their own on how to take care of children, no evaluation will be needed.

There are fundamental factors that you will need to look into when choosing an evaluator, but top of the list must be experience and past records. It may be good to look at the charges but this should not make you compromise on the quality of services you receive. The best evaluators in the market are those with higher qualifications from recognized institutions. Additionally, they are members of professional bodies that are recognized by the government.

The evaluation process is pretty simple and straight forward but requires total cooperation by both parents for it to be a success. Parents will have to visit the evaluator two or three times before the final decision is made. Additionally, the children will have to be interviewed in order to get their side of the story. This is one of things that make decisions very important before the law and judicial system set in place.

Vital court documents will have to be presented during the evaluation process and they may be reviewed if need be. In other cases, the parties involved (parents and children) may have to go through therapies in order to get treatment. The process must however be documented and presented to the courts for records and reference at the end of the day.

Evaluation is not always confidential as other parties involved can access documents that relate to your case. The best thing you can do is to be prepared, talk to your children about the sessions, and avoid being nervous when facing the evaluator. This will enable you tell your story without fear and favor. Always talk to your attorney about the ongoing process and you may request him to be present when the sessions are underway.

Evaluation is the best method used by the courts of law to reach out to issues affecting children involved in a tangle between their parents. The well being of the children therefore comes as a first priority, and the focus is on parenting attributes that are aimed at ensuring that psychological needs of children are taken care of. The main person who asks for it is the judge involved in the case.
